15861  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: We run an art gallery and want to accept BTC. Best way to target the community? on: December 06, 2014, 06:49:10 AM
Make sure you add it to http://www.coinmap.org

Also, if you want to attract Bitcoin users...show art that includes boobs. Tongue

You are too funny.



Some boobs would be nice though.  Wink

How 'bout art, boobs and leather?



The same artist, my brother-in-law, did three seats for Steven Tyler's bikes, two of which are housed in his museum, the other he rides daily (weather permitting, assumed).

He also did tooled all the leather holsters for some governor-cum-wrestler.

“Let’s be clear about one thing,” says Chris Ferguson, Head Manager of MinersLab. “This is not a get-rich-quick scheme. It isn’t easy to get wealthy mining Bitcoin, Litecoin or any other cryptocurrency. But it can be enormously profitable – if you have the right tools.”

I wonder if Doyle Brunson is their CFO.

Let's be clear! One can't get rich mining for gold in the desert, but if you have the right tools, it can be enormously profitable, ergo one can become rich.

I love companies that talk outta their ass.

Did I mention this is a scam?

Q. Can I visit your office, data center or manufacturing facilities?
A. Earlier visits were possible by preliminary coordination for some of our wholesale customers. However after several cases of industrial espionage we decided to prohibit personal visits.

So in closing, I hope this post shed some light on the topic but I would kindly ask you not to reply.

Very sincerely,
not reply?!  - ha -- Fuck you! That would be stupid.  

Do you think I am going to let you publish a huge list of misinformation and conclude with: 'don't reply'?  Why can you put forth your bullshit, and others are expected to stay silent?  Let me answer: it is because you are a troll cybersquatter who sits on domain names and tries to extract money from people who actually are building nice internet businesses.  Domain name squatting isn't clever.  The spirit of the whole thing is quite bad.  It arises only from a mere quirk in the registration rules and trademark laws.  The nature of what you are doing is corrupt and foul.  You are a pig.  

Go learn to write some code and build something nice for bitcoin rather than sitting around trying to swipe thousands from people just because you ran to the registration desk before they did.


Lost interest in the largest Bitcoin project in the world after

  • Visiting a website that doesn't even have a logo that renders correctly.
  • Listening to you tell the people you're asking funding for, how to conduct themselves when they communicate. Have yet to see another organization call the people they seek funding from "appalling".

Best of luck in your extraordinary project. 

Renderings aside, hence my take echoing yours. Like we need more Zerlans in the Bitcoin community.  Roll Eyes
15876  Other / Archival / Re: World's Largest Bitcoin Project Now Seeking Venture Capital on: December 04, 2014, 10:12:40 PM
Roll up, roll up, join the domain name circle jerk...

Meanwhile if you have an actual product, go with a unique name.

You mean like these? http://www.webboar.com/whois-phone/5132254757

World's Largest Bitcoin Project Now Seeking Venture Capital
Domain name cybersquatting is rather boring.  Why do you think this is the 'world largest bitcoin project'?  You got lucky one time - very few are stupid enough to believe the domain name means anything.  Look at circle.com - they just made a name.  Then, built a great service.  People go to them for the good press and services - not for the name.  If you put good service behind any name, that name will finally be good.  bitcoinwallet.com is the dumbest asset out there.  why would a VC want to share your stupid domain squatting business which is little more than a rip-off from bad behavior (registering domain with the idea you can extort money from others later).

First of all, let me kindly address your elementary confusion.

Cybersquatting, according to the United States federal law known as the "Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act", is registering, trafficking in, or using a domain name with bad faith intent to profit from the goodwill of a trademark belonging to someone else.

Here is a copy / paste explaining the UDRP process from ICANN.org for your further education:

(viii) Specify the trademark(s) or service mark(s) on which the complaint is based and, for each mark, describe the goods or services, if any, with which the mark is used (Complainant may also separately describe other goods and services with which it intends, at the time the complaint is submitted, to use the mark in the future.);

(ix) Describe, in accordance with the Policy, the grounds on which the complaint is made including, in particular,

(1) the manner in which the domain name(s) is/are identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which the Complainant has rights; and

(2) why the Respondent (domain-name holder) should be considered as having no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain name(s) that is/are the subject of the complaint; and

(3) why the domain name(s) should be considered as having been registered and being used in bad faith

Moving forward:

Premium domain name asset research and analysis, alongside ownership and brokering, is a very rare and lucrative skill set and the foundation to a multi-billion dollar global marketplace that has been thriving for ten consecutive calendar years.

Have you seen the reported Year-To-Date sales reports?

Did you know MILLIONS of dollars trade hands each and every month?

It is estimated that only 20 - 40% of sales are reported to media outlets leaving millions of dollars trapped under NDA's and private transactions.

Reported Sales 2014:  http://dnjournal.com/ytd-sales-charts.htm

Reported Sales 2013:  http://dnjournal.com/archive/domainsales/2013/2013-top-100-sales-charts.htm

Reported Sales 2012:  http://dnjournal.com/archive/domainsales/2012/2012-top-100-sales-charts.htm

Reported Sales 2011:  http://dnjournal.com/archive/domainsales/2011/2011-final-ytd-sales-charts.htm

Reported Sales 2010:  http://dnjournal.com/archive/domainsales/2010/2010-final-ytd-sales-charts.htm

Global Historical TOP reported SALES list via another source:  http://www.domaining.com/topsales/

Moving forward:

You, like many misinformed others, have turned this conversation into a "domain name" conversation about "speculating". Our portfolio, for your information, receives tens-of-thousands of page views and thousands of highly-targeted global visitors each-and-every-month with a $0.00 advertising and marketing budget exclusively by the ownership of our premium assets. Microsoft, among countless others, have conducted global academic studies and proven domain bias in SEO and PPC. Period. There is no snake oil. There is no hype. There is no maybe-kinda-sorta. Numbers don't lie. People do. Premium domain names are generic, intuitive, category or industry-defining, and represent a timeless competitive advantage in ANY and EVERY industry or niche on Earth. If you don't agree, it simply means you do not understand. I am by no means suggesting you "need" a generic domain asset to be successful, but rather stating (with conviction) that owning a premium domain asset will supply ANY project with a solid foundation and a consistent wave of advantages along the development path and will undeniably elevate the brands valuation pre-and-post divestment.

And for the record, we didn't "get lucky once with BitcoinWallet(.com)", we have been involved in millions of dollars of premium domain name asset transactions. And for your information, we have fielded numerous six-figure inquires even prior to our PR release.

So in closing, I hope this post shed some light on the topic but I would kindly ask you not to reply. The consistent negative and unprofessional tone in the forums is appalling. If anyone has ANY negative comments, or, genuine questions or concerns regarding our hard work and the release of our developments, please feel free to discuss any issues on a professional level - in private via direct message.

Very sincerely,

Hello everyone.

I am a professional media consultant, developer, and investor.

This is my first post on BitcoinTalk and I wanted to share some research.

Just food for thought...

Note:

On May 5th 2011 a woman by the name of "Michelle Szabo" registered the domain names "PayWithBitcoin.com" and "PayWithBitcoins.com".

Is this the wife, sister, or cousin of the rumored inventor of Bitcoin?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!?!?

Here are a few other interesting domain name asset registrations with dates.

Enjoy!
